I sat at a bench over looking the statue of liberty until the sun set . It was beautiful. I walked around until it got really dark and walked back to the Baxter building. I walked into my room not caring if anyone was home or not. I just laid on my bed staring at the ceiling. I soon drifted off into a dull sleep. I could subconsciously hear the door opening and closing multiple times and maybe an argument. I knew what was going on around me but I couldn't wake up from my slumber. Walking around New York all day was exhausting. Plus all the emotion and anger took a lot out of me.
…...
I finally woke up when the lamp next to my bed flickered and I could here a big machine running. I walked out of my room almost running into Susan. We looked at each other than walked to the machine Reed had built. The doors opened and he walked out. We all thought it worked until part of his face started to slide off. Sue and I ran to him.
"Oh, my God, Reed." Sue said.
"What did you do?" I said with worry.
"I can make it work!" he said.
"No!" Sue and I both said.
"I need more power to control the storm." he said.
"You need a doctor." I said as Sue and I lifted him up.
"Come with me." Sue said.
"One more try." he insisted.
"You need rest." Sue said. As we carried him to his bedroom. We laid him on the bed. I walked over to Sue.
"How the hell do we fix this?" I said. She shook her head.
"I don't know." she said. "Will you go and get me some towels?" I nodded and left. It had took a good amount of time to carry Reed up the stairs into his room. He was all squishy and runny. He kept 'melting' to one side or another. I walked down the stairs and the lights flickered again. I walked faster down the stairs. I ran into the main room where the machine was to see Ben crawling out of it.
"BEN!" I yelled running over to him. He was normal Ben again. He smiled at me as he walked out.
"Thank you!" he said I stood there confused. How was been normal but Reed worse? And thank you to who?
"Vic?" he said looking around for him. I shook my head this couldn't be good.
"Look Angie. I'm me again. Vic?" he said as he put on a jacket looking for Victor. Ben walked up to me.
"It worked! Angie look it worked. Where's Vic?" he asked me I shook my head. I was about to say something but was interrupted.
"Everyone thought I was safe behind those shields." Victors voice said. Ben turned around and I saw him. We both gasped. He was steaming and had a cut on his face that looked silver.
"Oh, my God!" Ben and I both exclaimed.
"The machine worked for me. It can work for you too." Ben said.
"Oh it did Ben. It worked perfectly." Victor said as he walked closer to us. His hands were almost completely metal.
"You planned this." I said.
"I've always wanted power. Now I have an unlimited supply." Vic said.
"And no Thing to stand in your way." Ben said.
"Take a good look guys. This is what man looks like who embraces his destiny." Vic said and hit Ben. He flew behind where Vic and I were standing.
"And Angie, sweet secretary Angie." he said walking closer to me. I walked back until I hit a table. His hand rose to my neck.
"I never liked you." he said as his hand curled around my neck. He lifted me into the air. My air supply was being cut short fast. He threw me and I landed in the machine. My head hit the back of it causing me to be disoriented.
"Oh this is perfect." he said jogging over to the machine. He shut the door and turned the machine on. I struggled to get up and attempt to open the door, but it was to late. The remake of the storm had started.
